“Deborah was absolutely amazing with my pups! I’m so happy that I found her! One of my pups has quite a few quirks and Deborah was so patient and kind with her 🥹 my pups were part of the family over the holiday, they loved our pups like their own! What a relief to find such a kind and caring sitter. Not only was she amazing with the dogs, she was also so patient with me having multiple travel delays. She is so sweet and understanding! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!!!”
“It was such a blessing for Candice and her family to watch Mindy! My dog was clearly well loved during her stay. The daily updates and photos were greatly appreciated. Especially when I could see how much of a good time Mindy was having.”
“Alexis and her husband Jason, took such great care of our boy, Bronco. Their dog Finn and Bronco got along perfect. They went above and beyond to take him to dog parks, teach agility, and made him part of the family. They will be our regulars! :)”
“Melissa was an excellent sitter for our teacup chihuahua. He is 16, blind and hard of hearing which required a little extra precaution. Her nursing background definitely put us at ease. She sent pictures to us while we were out of the country and let ys know how he was doing. She took him for walks in a doggy stroller and gave him lots of love. She also administered his meds. I would highly recommend Melissa to care for your fur baby! We will absolutely use her services again. Thank you Melissa!”
“Huri has been the best with my Addie Mae! She has been great at updating me and sending me photo updates! And she helped me out and gave her a bath! I’m so thankful I found someone that Addie and I love and I feel so much better having to leave her when I know how happy and well taken care of she is!”
“Bailie is an excellent sitter. She is friendly, responsive, communicative, and responsible. She took great care of our two dogs and we would highly recommend her to anyone. We will definitely book with her again.”
“Max stayed for over 2wks with Jennifer and Michael. They sent me pictures regularly and Max came back with as much energy as he was dropped off with…so I know he was played with plenty. It was great getting pictures of him with all the other dogs. He’s normally the only dog at home, so I know he loved playing with the other dogs while he was there. It was great to see him pulled in as part of their family while we were gone.”
“Cody was awesome. We have a large male German shepherd who is scared of his own shadow and he gave Cody a run for his money the first few days. Cody was very accommodating and took him a day early so we could leave for our vacation early. He sent me a picture just about every day. Communication was an A plus, We messaged everyday and he was quick to reply back. Very friendly. I know they went for some very long walks which my boy needed and loved. Thank you Cody. Your fur babies will be in Excellent hands, safe and well taken care of with the very nice young man.”
“Sherri and Bob love our Grace as much as we do. When we arrive at their house, Grace runs to the door, looking in the window with her tail going a mile a minute with joy! We have never worried about her even while gone for an extended time as we know she will be as well loved and cared for as if we were there. Sherri is great with videos and report cards. You will not regret leaving your precious baby in this loving home!”
“Anita is the best! She has a sweet Italian greyhound who played very well with our miniature schnauzer; she has a large wonderful back yard, perfect for zooming around; she showed extra concern for Ripley’s hard floor phobia and put down runners for him so he could roam the house; she even let him sleep in his bed on her bed, something he doesn’t get to do at home. He loves his stay with her!”
“Victoria, Michael and their children treated both our fur babies with such care and attention. They have gained a client for as long as they provide these services! 100% recommended!”
“Kate was happy and healthy when we picked her up. Kristin was very nice and was good about updating me and sending pictures. She has very friendly dogs. I would definitely book with her again.”
“I can’t say enough great things about Christopher. He was an absolute hero—stepping in on super short notice (less than 24 hours!) to take care of my pup, Benji. His communication was wonderful from the start, keeping me updated and making sure I felt completely at ease.”
“This was the first time our dog, Piper, had ever stayed overnight with anyone other than family, so we weren't quite sure how she'd do, but Sharon is clearly a dog lover who put Piper (and us) right at ease! From the daily pics Sharon kindly sent us, we could tell that Piper was settling in quickly with Sharon and felt right at home curled up next to her & happily exploring Sharon's nice back yard, which greatly helped us to enjoy our trip more knowing how content Piper was and how well she was being cared for. Highly recommend leaving your precious pet in the care of Sharon, who is caring, flexible, and a good communicator....we'd love for Piper to stay with her again sometime!”
About: Hello! My name is Karen and I've been an avid and passionate animal lover my entire life. I have over 20 years of dog fostering experience with Big Fluffy Fog Rescue, and currently have two of my own dogs and three horses at home. I would love to let your pup join our little pack! I offer a private climate controlled area for your dog(s) to feel safe and relaxed. Crating is available, but some of my more mature canine friends prefer a nice dog bed and cot if they so choose. The space includes direct access to a fenced in yard with plenty of opportunity for outside! I am a full time remote employee, so I am here all the time. We have potty breaks as needed, with tons of supervised outside time! I offer a private inclusive area for friends, as well as lots of outside time with or without canine friends! There are cats and horses so if your friend has a high prey drive this wouldn't be the best place.
“Our little guy was in the best of hands with Simone! Daily pics and communication from her put our mind at ease and we were grateful for the one on one attention he was given. If there were more than 5 stars, we would give them!”

“Heather was absolutely amazing with our cats! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter while we were away. She went above and beyond - bringing in our packages, checking on our fish, and even offering to grab our mail. It gave us such peace of mind knowing everything at home was being cared for. Our cat, who usually hides from everyone, actually started coming out more with each visit - clearly, she felt comfortable with Heather! It’s safe to say we’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Deborah was awesome! She took great care of our doggies. Which I appreciate very much. She sent pics and kept us informed. We have never left our doggies with a sitter before. I would highly recommend her for anybody looking for somebody that takes good care of their babies.Thanks again Deb. Quit.”

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve cared for playful puppies and kittens, senior pets who need extra patience, and pets with unique routines and personalities. I understand how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, affection, and consistent care. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, administering oral medications if needed, cleaning litter boxes, or simply providing companionship, I’m committed to helping every pet feel comfortable, happy, and loved. My schedule is flexible on weekends, and I’m also available for early morning visits and walks during the week. I do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and will communicate clearly to ensure they receive reliable, consistent care.

I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is safe and in caring hands.
About: I myself have a spunky 3 yr old border collie/shepherd mix. We have worked with a trainer to channel her high energy drive. Because of this, I have learned ways to overcome a lot of challenges dog owners face & how to build healthy bonds. With me, you wouldn’t be getting just a regular walk or play! We will learn cool things together & have so much fun while doing it 😎 In addition to my own current fur baby, I’ve owned two other pups as well as fostered back home in WI. I dog sit for friends, families, and neighbors. I treat your pups just as my own 🐶 I work M-F at home and have a very flexible work schedule as well as being completely free on weekends! I am able to do drop by visits and walks just about anytime you are needing! The same trust and care that my own receives is exactly what yours will too! I take great pride in ensuring all pups & homes are safe in my care.

“Mabry is fantastic! She is incredibly, responsive, dependable, and a great communicator! She always sends me pictures of my kittens, and I know they are in great hands with her! Highly recommend!”
“Clay was fantastic and very communicative. He sent pictures and updates of my cat every day and I felt very comfortable knowing she was being well taken care of while I was away. I would easily book Clay again.”
About: I’v taken care of dogs since I was old enough to be responsible for them, around age 12. I was in charge of feeding our family dogs, walking them, and exercising them through intentional playtime. We had 3 dogs then, and now we own two. I enjoy going on long walks and hikes, and often take my dogs on hikes. I also enjoy a casual run, and I am happy to take dogs on runs as well! I just graduated from college, and I have a couple weeks available until I begin my job. I will start working as a Firefighter for the Franklin fire department on June 8. Once that starts, I will be available on most weekends and evenings to care for your pet! I am happy to walk or run your pet! I also offer pet-sitting. As a responsible student, with several years of families trusting me with babysitting, I can give you confidence that your home and pet will be cared for as if they were my own.
About: Ever since I was little, I loved looking after animals big or small. I was the neighborhood kid to call if there was a need for pet care. I started at 10 doing as little as picking up poo from yards to growing up and staying over if the owner was out of town! I have experience with dogs, cats and yes fish at almost every stage of life. I have a long list of clients who would recommend me to look after your furry friend!! I am a part time employee at the moment so I have flexibility in my hours! Depending on the service needed I can make it work along with my schedule. I will be a local college student starting up in August but will continue to have an open schedule! I have a dog of my own and she is one of my top priority’s! When I stay at a clients home I ensure their furry friends have plenty of play and outdoor time. Walks are a non negotiable with my dog so I am very good with taking clients dogs out multiple times a day! Cats have the same priority, I ensure they have play time if that is up their alley or just a couch buddy! Every animal is different so I adjust accordingly!!
“We had an emergency situation a messaged Austin. He dropped everything Christmas Day and went to our house to feed, water and check on our fur babies. He sent updates and pictures every day and was incredibly kind and helpful. I recommend Austin with the highest rating.”
“Riley was great! She responded very quickly, and our cat Thomas loved her immediately. This was our first time using Rover and we felt very comfortable knowing he was in great hands. Would book again!”
About: I've had the opportunity to get to know and care for pets since I was fifteen! Throughout the years, I've cared for pets belonging to family, friends, and myself, gaining experience with furry friends of all shapes and sizes—from Maltipoms and Great Pyrenees to cats with very different personalities and needs. As a cat mom to two young Russian Blue mixes, I've learned that every pet is unique. I have direct experience with kittens, puppies, medication administration, and specialized feeding routines. I've also learned that while some pets welcome new friends right away, others prefer to keep their distance and build trust more slowly—and I will always respect their boundaries and comfort levels. Whether your pet is big or small, shy or social, low-maintenance or in need of a little extra care, I'd love the opportunity to provide them with safe, reliable, and loving care while you're away! I'm currently working 30 hours per week at my daytime job, but will have plenty of time to check in on your pets outside of those hours. For check-ins, I'm available between 6:00 am - 8:00 am & 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm on all weekdays. Saturdays, I am available at any time. Sundays, I am available from 12:00 pm - 11:00 pm. Safety is always my top priority. When entering and exiting a home, I make sure doors, gates, and entryways are secure to prevent pets from accidentally getting outside. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I pay close attention to their body language and boundaries. Whether they want lots of attention or prefer their space, I will always respect what makes them feel safe and comfortable. I carefully follow all feeding and medication instructions, double-check amounts and dosages, ensure fresh water is available, and provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I have lifelong experience with cats and a strong understanding of feline behavior, care, and comfort. My first and longest companion was a formerly feral barn cat named Chipper who bonded with me when I was five years old and remained by my side into adulthood. That early, long-term experience taught me how to build trust, read subtle body language, and respect the individual needs of each cat. I currently have a cat named Mac, whom I raised from a bottle baby. Through this, I gained hands-on experience with kitten care, feeding schedules, socialization, and the unique needs of young and developing cats. In addition to personal experience, I volunteered with the Williamson County Animal Shelter, where I worked with a wide range of cats—kittens, seniors, shy or fearful cats, confident adults, and those requiring specialized care. This exposure helped strengthen my skills in safe handling, enrichment, medication support (when needed), and creating a calm environment for cats with varying temperaments. My approach is patient, attentive, and tailored to each individual cat. Whether your cat prefers structured play, quiet companionship, or minimal interaction, I provide reliable and compassionate care based on their comfort level and routine.
“Samantha did an excellent job caring for my kitties when I was away for the weekend! She asked all the right questions in advance and communicated well throughout the booking. I definitely plan to book with her in the future.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Boston
About: I have 5 dogs that are my kids. I am a stay at home dog mom. Your dog will be my dog while in my care. 4 are small and 1 medium sized. They are all fixed, UTD on shots and heart worm. All adopted from different states and shelters. They are between the ages of 10 and 12, and 1 senior who we believe is about 16. They are only crated at night if I go out for an extended period of time, except Charlie, the old man, he is out 24/7. We live on a half acre, fully fenced back yard (5 ft aluminum with puppy pickets). They can get on the furniture if they want and I have dog beds throughout the house. My dogs typically get on very well with other dogs. I dog sit 2 dogs in my home a few times a year for a few days to a week at a time. 1 medium and 1 large. I have fostered various dogs for Big Fluffy Dog Rescue in the past and I have helped and run adoption events at Petco for about a year for Simpson County Animal Shelter/Friends of the Shelter in Franklin KY. I am a stay at home dog mom. I can pet sit any time of the day or week, for just a few hours, a day or overnights. I only leave the house to go to the store or run a few errands. Typically not out for extended periods. If I am dog sitting, I prefer to be at home as often as possible. I am always around my dogs. I have dog beds in all areas of the house. I keep an eye on them when they go outside. I play with them regularly. When I get a new foster dog, I usually will keep them leashed for a little while until they get acclimated and used to the other dogs. You, my customer are more than welcome to come into my house and yard and meet myself, and my dogs.
“Our first daycare experience with Erika and Erik went very well! Very friendly and attentive sitters. Our dog Bear seemed happy and cared for. They have a great place that is very inviting. I highly recommend them!”
“Jennifer and Michael are fabulous and very accommodating with my schedule. They treat Mack like one of their own and part of the family. I would highly recommend them!”
“Megan was so friendly! She was confident with my nervous dog and let me know as soon as she was settled! I didn’t worry about Penny at all and will not hesitate to use Megan again.”
“Jamie was a wonderful sitter ❤️ she was attentive and gracious and kept my puppy safe. Kuzco loved playing with her dogs and he was happy and well worn at the end of the day, which is hard to do with the puppy energy! Jamie was flexible with my last minute, changing schedule around the holidays and I am very thankful!”
“I’ve used Rover in more cities and states than I can count while traveling with Hal, and the experiences have nearly always been excellent. But Samantha is in a class all her own. She’s professional, loving, enthusiastic, flexible, and genuinely caring — everything you could hope for in someone looking after your dog. Her communication was outstanding, with thoughtful updates and great photos throughout Hal’s stay. I always felt completely at ease knowing he was in her hands. If there were a six-star option, I’d give it without hesitation. Thank you, Samantha — truly!”
About: Every dog is different, and I believe their care should be too. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and preferences so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether your dog is playful, laid back, anxious, a puppy, or a senior, I’m happy to adjust my care to fit their individual needs. I understand that leaving your dog with someone new can be stressful, and I do everything I can to make the experience comfortable for both you and your dog. Whether you have a calm companion or a high-energy working breed that thrives on activity and engagement, I’m happy to tailor my care to fit their individual needs. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always come first. I never assume unfamiliar dogs will get along simply because they’re friendly. Introductions are done slowly, interactions are always supervised, and I’m happy to separate dogs whenever needed. Every dog deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and respected during their stay.
“Simone is absolutely lovely and my pup thinks so too. With just one day stay they already have a rapport! I got updates during her stay, overall great communication and was super helpful after realizing I booked my reservation incorrectly! Highly recommend!”
“Alexis and her family were wonderful with my 7 month old mini poodle pup. We ended up in a big jam and needed last minute day care for four days. I sent an inquiry at 8:30 the night before, and Alexis responded within a couple of minutes! She was also great at reporting in and sending photos. My pup was well cared for and had a wonderful time playing with their darling young son and sweet dog. Big thanks to Alexis and her terrific family!!”
“I am so grateful for the wonderful care of my older "puppy" Grover who spent the day being cared for. I always know that he's in great hands. Highly recommend and will definitely rebook when needed.”
About: Hi I I'm Lexi and I’m completely OBSESSED with animals. I personally own a dog, 2 cats, a python and a bearded dragon. If I could convince my husband to allow me to have 2 to 7 more animals, I’d be the happiest girl in the world :) Rover allows me to have hundreds of fur babies, even if it’s temporary and that’s why I offer boarding, drop in visits and doggy day camp! I've worked at a pet grooming/boarding facility called Pet Plaza so I have experience with many different breeds and many different breed personalities. I also managed a dog boarding/daycare/grooming facility for the past 2 years. I’ve been a part-time Rover sitter for almost 10 years but I’ve recently made a career change and decided to prioritize Rover as my full-time job.

About: Hi, I’m Carrie! 🐾 Animals have always been at the heart of my life. For over 2 years I’ve volunteered at my local animal shelter, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. That hands-on experience taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of treating every pet like family. Currently, I’m home full-time caring for my sweet senior dog, Sophia (15 years old, living with Cushing’s Disease). Making sure she is comfortable and loved has given me an even deeper appreciation for the trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. Because I’m at home, I can dedicate all the time and attention your dog deserves. Here’s what you can expect when your pet stays with me: Lots of love & attention – every pet is treated like my own family. No crating (unless required by you or for very brief times when I must step out). Safe, comfortable environment tailored to your pet’s needs. Experience with senior and special-needs dogs who may require extra patience and care. Regular updates & photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, snuggles on the couch, or simply a calm and caring presence, I’m here to provide the same quality of care I give my own beloved Sophia. Your pup’s happiness, safety, and comfort will always be my top priority. ❤️ I'm currently out of work to care for my senior girl, Sophia, that has had some complications with Cushing's Disease. Your pet will be under my full-time loving care at my home, or in your home. I offer both services. Your pet will only be crated when I need to step out momentarily. In my home, pets are part of the family! 🐾 I have a fully fenced one-acre yard where they can safely run and play, and when the weather’s nice, we’ll spend lots of time outside together. Indoors, your pup will be right by my side, whether that’s hanging out in the kitchen watching me cook or relaxing nearby. I don’t crate unless you request it or for brief times when needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick to their routine and give them plenty of attention, exercise, and love so they feel safe and comfortable until you’re back.
“Katie is amazing! She made my pups feel so loved, they came home happy and tired from having such a blast! They wanted to stay longer to keep playing! She treats them like family and it made me feel at ease knowing that she takes care of them the way I do.”

I am comfortable giving oral and injectable medication to dogs. Injectable medication for cats. I have experience with guinea pigs as well.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a little kid. We’ve always had at least one dog or cat in my house my whole life! I currently don’t have a job.

“Leigh- Ann has been great. She was so good we hired her for a second week. Bella, our boxer, has quickly adapted to her. I would highly recommend Leigh-Ann to anyone who is interested in a new dog walker!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for many years and truly love caring for animals of all kinds. With plenty of experience, I understand how important it is to keep your pets safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m dependable, flexible with scheduling, and always willing to work with you to meet your pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, medication, or just keeping your furry friend company, I’m here to help! I work a full-time rotating schedule where I’m on for 7 days straight and then off for 7 days. My work week always starts on a Thursday and ends on a Wednesday. During those 7 workdays, I’m working full-time each day. After that, I get a full week off to rest and take care of personal things. It’s a repeating cycle—7 days on, 7 days off—so every other week I’m either working or completely off I pet sit because I genuinely love what I do — and animals love me back. Their comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. When pets stay with me in my home, they become part of the family. I make sure every animal is well-fed, always has fresh water, and most importantly — plenty of playtime and affection. They get a safe, loving environment where they can relax and feel right at home. When I care for pets in your home, I follow all instructions to the letter — from feeding and medication routines to special care details. I send regular photo updates so you always know how your furry friend is doing, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Respecting your space and your pet’s routine is always a priority. Whether they’re staying with me or I’m staying with them, your pet gets the same thing: love, attention, and top-notch care.

About: I love animals, I have since as long as I can remember. I was born and raised in an animal household so understanding animals, communicating with them, and tending to them has become second nature. I have pet sat and helped handle animals at the Nashville Zoo as a volunteer during my high school years and have watched over friends, family, and neighbors animals for around a decade now. I know how important family is and how pets are family that just so happens to walk on four legs for all of their lives instead of just their infant years. I am currently on staff at my church right now as outreach and ministry team so my times I am unavailable are Tuesday's, Thursday's, and Friday's after 5:00pm. I go to church on Sunday mornings but I can always watch virtually so I can tend to pets overnight. I care for animals as I would care for myself I believe in all life is precious and that any life created is family to me which most certainly includes pets. My approach comes from being gentle, reacting/reading body language, minding my emotions and actions because animals are sensitive to those, and just showering them with love the way THEY want to receive it not how I want to give it. It is their comfort and wellbeing over mine and I will do everything in my power to ensure a healthy environment for everybody's animals.
About: I’ve worked in a vet's office and taken care of pretty much all animals over the years. I grew up showing horses competitively on a small farm with chickens, ducks, cattle, rabbits, pigs, dogs, and cats. Since then I’ve owned and cared for miniature donkeys, standard poodles, Weimeraners, Dalmatians, cats, and chickens. As long as it’s not a reptile, I’m game. I love those who need something extra that your normal pet sitter may not be comfortable with - and I also love all the others who don’t need anything special! I have an extremely flexible schedule and can work around pretty much whatever you need. One thing’s for sure - I will be honest with you. If I can’t do it, I will tell you. I will come to your home and care for your pets just as you do! I don’t need a pre-visit (unless you would like that) - you can show me by FaceTime or you can leave me a note. I am also more than happy to have a pre-visit! I like to communicate with you while you’re away so you know how things are going at home.
About: I have hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals at every life stage—from newborns to seniors. This allows me to confidently handle everything from playful, high-energy pets to those needing slower, more attentive care. I tailor my approach to each animal’s age, personality, and needs to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for. My availability is flexible, and when I accept a booking, I am fully committed to being there exactly when your pet needs me. I’m very mindful of my schedule and only accept jobs I can reliably follow through on, so you can count on consistency, punctuality, and dependable care every time. I provide care exclusively in your pet’s home or through outings, so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. This helps reduce stress and keeps them feeling secure while you’re away. In your home, I follow your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible—feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any medications or special instructions. I spend quality time with them so they feel cared for, not just “checked on.” For outings, I make sure they get safe, structured exercise and enrichment tailored to their energy level and personality. I’m very attentive to behavior, surroundings, and safety at all times. My goal is to provide consistent, loving care while keeping your pet happy, relaxed, and in their normal routine.
“Oh my gosh, you WILL NOT be disappointed if you trust your fur babies to Ashley. Talk about somebody who always goes the extra mile and just genuinely loves animals. She’s constantly sending pictures during her visits and my dogs always have a blast with her. She is the bomb!”
About: I’m a professional dog trainer and experienced pet care provider with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m new to TN and Rover but I have run my own pet care business the past 10 years prior to my move. My background includes dog training, dog walking, pet sitting, and volunteering with animal rescues and shelters, where I’ve worked with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs and those with special behavioral or medical needs. Whether your dog is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, my goal is to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Boarding Your dog will receive almost constant care and companionship. I work from home and intentionally limit the number of dogs I care for so each one receives plenty of individual attention. I don’t have any pets of my own, so your dog won’t be competing for attention and can truly feel at home. For active dogs, I provide at least one hour of exercise and enrichment each day, tailored to their energy level and routine. Drop-In Visits, Walks & House Sitting I also offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting in your home. Keeping your dog in their familiar environment can be a great option for reducing stress while maintaining their normal routine. I’ll ensure they receive plenty of exercise, affection, and mental stimulation while respecting your home as if it were my own. I’m experienced in administering medications, following special feeding instructions, and accommodating individual routines and preferences. Whether your dog requires extra patience, a structured schedule, or a little extra TLC, I’m happy to provide personalized care. Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and messages throughout your dog’s stay or visit, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your family member, and I’d love the opportunity to provide a safe, reliable, and loving experience for your dog. I look forward to meeting you both! I work part time teaching pilates and my partner works from home so we provide constant care and attention. My schedule allows frequent breaks to attend to the dogs with walks, potty breaks and bonding time with other dogs There’s a dog park and trails at our apartment complex and the dog will be with us at all times. With dogs who are reactive on leash I always ensure to create a safe distance from other dogs and do not let dogs off leash unless in an enclosed space
About: Fun fact I used to be afraid of animals until I was about 12. Now I have 4 cats and have owned 6 dogs over the years. I have trained 3 of them to a basic degree and also own a snake. I love animals of all kinds and more often than not they warm up to me instantly! I am interested in summer work during the off season and am available most days almost anytime with some exceptions. I prefer mornings to mid afternoons but am very flexible! Standard house sitting includes overnight care plus daytime absences up to 4–8 hours depending on the pets’ needs. I also offer constant care for houses and pets for a custom rate depending on the individual and pets schedule! Since I have 4 cats and a human I cant board pets at home. But I have no issues staying over a night if needed, and can easily House-sit, Dog-sit, and Cat-sit in the greater Franklin area! I can feed, play, walk, provide potty breaks, and even teach dogs a trick or two.
About: I have been dogsitting since I was around 13 years old for many different families. I have been around dogs my whole life and have owned and helped raise 4 dogs. Two were raised from the puppy stage. The other two were raised till senior age. I have experience with many different breeds and sizes of dogs from golden doodles to Yorkies! I have a deep love for dogs and always enjoy being around animals. It brings me so much joy! I am a college student but my afternoons are usually free and on weekends I always go home if I have nothing planned and spent time with my pets and family. I am very respectful of others space and possessions. I understand I am a guest and act accordingly and take up minimal space and don’t abuse the generosity and trust clients have put in me.

About: Hi there! I’m Carley — a lifelong animal lover, a mom of three, and the proud owner of a sweet, energetic dog named Millie and a laid-back cat named Mac. Caring for animals has been woven into my life from the very beginning. I grew up surrounded by farm animals and learned early on how to handle, nurture, and truly understand different personalities, needs, and quirks. Before becoming a SSS Professional, I ran a small pet-care business called All Things Living, where I cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. From high-energy pups who need structured walks to gentle seniors who appreciate patient companionship, I’ve always loved connecting with animals and making them feel safe, understood, and loved. My employment allows me to have the flexibility and attentiveness to give your pet the consistent care they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in, or extra snuggles, I treat every pet like part of the family — because that’s how I’d want someone to care for mine. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! 🐾 I am available for home visits 7 days a week between 6am - 11pm, May - August. I am more than happy to keep your furry baby at our home if they are okay with children, dogs, cats and the noise that comes with them! I am also occasionally available for house sitting. I live in an active neighborhood called Chapmans Retreat with wonderful sidewalks for walking and a bubbling creek in our backyard for romping. There is ample space for your fur baby to run and a cozy home to rest.

“Alexis and her husband Jason, took such great care of our boy, Bronco. Their dog Finn and Bronco got along perfect. They went above and beyond to take him to dog parks, teach agility, and made him part of the family. They will be our regulars! :)”
“Bailie is an excellent sitter. She is friendly, responsive, communicative, and responsible. She took great care of our two dogs and we would highly recommend her to anyone. We will definitely book with her again.”
“Max stayed for over 2wks with Jennifer and Michael. They sent me pictures regularly and Max came back with as much energy as he was dropped off with…so I know he was played with plenty. It was great getting pictures of him with all the other dogs. He’s normally the only dog at home, so I know he loved playing with the other dogs while he was there. It was great to see him pulled in as part of their family while we were gone.”
“Cody was awesome. We have a large male German shepherd who is scared of his own shadow and he gave Cody a run for his money the first few days. Cody was very accommodating and took him a day early so we could leave for our vacation early. He sent me a picture just about every day. Communication was an A plus, We messaged everyday and he was quick to reply back. Very friendly. I know they went for some very long walks which my boy needed and loved. Thank you Cody. Your fur babies will be in Excellent hands, safe and well taken care of with the very nice young man.”

“I can’t say enough great things about Christopher. He was an absolute hero—stepping in on super short notice (less than 24 hours!) to take care of my pup, Benji. His communication was wonderful from the start, keeping me updated and making sure I felt completely at ease.”
About: Hello! My name is Karen and I've been an avid and passionate animal lover my entire life. I have over 20 years of dog fostering experience with Big Fluffy Fog Rescue, and currently have two of my own dogs and three horses at home. I would love to let your pup join our little pack! I offer a private climate controlled area for your dog(s) to feel safe and relaxed. Crating is available, but some of my more mature canine friends prefer a nice dog bed and cot if they so choose. The space includes direct access to a fenced in yard with plenty of opportunity for outside! I am a full time remote employee, so I am here all the time. We have potty breaks as needed, with tons of supervised outside time! I offer a private inclusive area for friends, as well as lots of outside time with or without canine friends! There are cats and horses so if your friend has a high prey drive this wouldn't be the best place.
“Our pup loved staying with Katie! Her place has a lot of land, and so it was great for him to be able to run free like that. Our pup is social and so it was also great for other dogs to be there to make him comfier. We really appreciated her sending pictures occasionally and asking for clarification on our instructions. We could tell when we picked him up that loved it. Amazing sitter!”
“This was my first time ever boarding a dog and Christy really set my mind at ease. She was accommodating and took great care of our dog. She sent photos and updates during the stay. We would book again!”
“Juniper had such a great time with Lisa. Her property is beautiful and spacious and so peaceful. You can tell that everyone is well loved and cared for. When I arrived to pick up Juniper she was running around and playing with all of the other dogs. Highly recommend!!”
“Our pup Lucky had a blast. We had complete peace of mind while Lucky was with Carrie, her family, and pack. The yard is fenced, he made a friend, and is allowed to lay on the couch when relaxing. He also got great healthy food as a bonus, which I can only imagine how much he loved. I strongly recommend considering Carrie for sitting and plan to let Lucky return to see his new friends again.”
“Samantha is the best!! She was extremely thorough, sent lots of updates with pictures, and I knew our dog was having the time of his life. I can’t recommend her enough and I will definitely be using her in the future!”
